Intended Use
The INOblender provides user set concentrations of inhaled Nitric Oxide (NO), in a balance of nitrogen, mixed into a user settable constant flow of oxygen gas that is being delivered to a patient. The intended use for the INOblender is as a back up to a primary nitric oxide delivery system or for short term attended use when a primary delivery device cannot practicably be used. This intended use includes applications within a medical facility and transport outside of a medical facility. The INOblender is not intended for use as a primary NO delivery system for long-term use.
Device Description
The INOblender is a Nitric Oxide Administration Apparatus - Back-up System. It provides user set concentrations of inhaled Nitric Oxide (NO), in a balance of nitrogen, mixed into a user settable constant flow of oxygen gas that is being delivered to a patient.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a device that blends gases based on user settings and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is intended to deliver user-set concentrations of inhaled Nitric Oxide (NO) and oxygen gas to a patient, which directly serves a therapeutic purpose (delivery of a therapeutic gas).

No

The INOblender is described as a "Nitric Oxide Administration Apparatus" that delivers user-set concentrations of inhaled Nitric Oxide. Its function is to administer a substance to a patient, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Nitric Oxide Administration Apparatus - Back-up System" and describes the mixing of gases, which indicates a hardware component for gas delivery and blending. The performance studies also mention "Integrity Test Report" and "Reliability Testing," which are typical for hardware devices.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to deliver inhaled Nitric Oxide (NO) to a patient. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "Nitric Oxide Administration Apparatus - Back-up System," which is a type of medical device used for patient treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device's function is to deliver a gas mixture for therapeutic purposes.

Dear Mr. Montgomery:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
